问答题Contemporary method acting is a style of acting that emphasizes an individualized, psychological approach. "The Method" requires an actor to bring realism and depth to a part with his own emotions and experiences. Actors use techniques such as sense and memory to achieve realism. They delve into their own past to discover feelings that are similar to those of the character. Method acting is the opposite of the "wooden" acting of earlier periods. Characters are shown to have a complex interior life, rather than being stereotyped figures, such as hero or villain, which represent a single concept. "The Method" develops an actor's ability to use the subtext of a script to convey the complexity of inner feelings. Training involves long rehearsal periods where actors "go into character" and analyze all the specifics of a scene. They must explore the subtext, the deeper, unwritten meaning in the script, the source of conflict and contradiction. The subtext is where actors discover how to structure motion around conflicting emotions so the character can be shown as a complex human being with multiple and contradictory desires. Method acting is one of the most difficult styles to learn because there are no technical forms that can be practiced. Spoken language is secondary to emotions, so no training in voice or movement is necessary. Emotions shape how a character speaks and moves. Method acting requires a strong commitment from actors, who are encouraged to "live the part," to become the character and allow the character to develop naturally. Some actors become so immersed in a role that they remain in character even when they are not acting. Now listen to the recording. When you hear the question, begin your response. You may look at the reading passage during the writing time. Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they oppose specific points made in the reading passage.

问答题Title: 达尔文进化论 大致内容 达尔文1）发现在一个岛链的很多个岛上动物都不一样，除了动物是渐渐变化的这一种说法，没有别的理论能解释这种现象了。2）而且鸟和蝙蝠的前肢结构相似，是由于它们有相同的祖先，然后在适应不同的环境的过程中产生了变化。3） 那么这个变化是怎么产生的呢？就提到了自然选择和人工选择。自然选择就是动物种群内部就会自发的选择优秀的基因，然后传递下去。人工选择受到另外一个学者 的启发，这个学者说一个人种在粮食少的时候，人口反而增加了，这样就自动的剩下了那些能适应环境的。然后达尔文说，对，动物也是通过这样的竞争来发生变化 的，这就是人工选择。

问答题Pruning is removing dead or living branches of a tree to improve the tree's health and structure. Careful pruning will control the size of a tree and hold the tree within bounds. Tree size is maintained through crown reduction pruning, the removal of larger branches at the top of the tree to reduce its height. When done properly, crown reduction only removes branches immediately above the joint with other branches, leaving no stubs. Pruning invigorates trees and keeps them healthy. In general, a tree will be more vigorous with a few healthy branches than with many weak ones. Crowded branches never develop to full size. Large branches compete with small branches, and the small ones become targets for disease and breakage. Pruning encourages trees to develop a strong structure, which reduces the likelihood of damage during severe weather. Pruning should always be done sparingly; removing too many branches in one season can damage the tree's capability for photosynthesis. The aim of pruning is to enhance the natural shape and beauty of a tree. Most hardwood trees have rounded crowns that lack a strong leader and may have several lateral, or side, branches. Branches grow from stems at nodes, and cuts are always made just above the stem- branch node so that the wound heals effectively. Cuts should not be made in the middle of a branch or near the end of a branch. After a mature tree reaches the desirable shape, pruning should be done only to remove broken or diseased branches and to thin occasionally to avoid overcrowding. Now listen to the recording. When you hear the question, begin your response. You may look at the reading passage dining the writing time. Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they contrast with specific points made in the reading passage.

问答题QUESTION 1 For this task, you will write a response to a question about a reading passage and a lecture. You may take notes, and you may use your notes to help you write your response. Your response will be scored on the quality of your writing and on how well you connect the points in the lecture with points in the reading. Typically, an effective response will have 150 to 225 words. Many employers have policies against friendships in the workplace. Even if friendships are not directly prohibited, they may be discouraged because friendships among employees can have negative consequences. Workplace friendships, especially close friendships, affect an employee"s job performance. A recent survey of business leaders showed that employees are less engaged in their work when they have a close friend at work. Employees with close friends are less productive and less valuable to the organization. They spend too much time talking and are less careful in what they talk about in the workplace. Nearly half of the managers who were interviewed said that people should keep work and non-work life separate. Close friendships affect the entire workplace. A close friendship is inherently more complex than a casual one. The closer two people become in the workplace, the more potential fallout if things go awry and they stop being friends. Also, when people form tight-knit social groups at work, it can alienate others, who might feel left out and become jealous. Other employees might complain about cliques. In the survey of business leaders, nearly one-third of those interviewed agreed that familiarity breeds contempt and that resentment within the work group decreases employees" loyalty to the company. Moreover, some workplace friendships are counterproductive because they increase worker dissatisfaction. Within some factories, the relationship between management and union workers is so bad that it leads to constant tension. As a result, most of the friendships among workers are based on a mutual hatred for their employer. Workplace conversations often revolve around complaining and venting. Friendships based on shared resentment have a negative influence on all concerned. Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they contradict specific points made in the reading passage. QUESTION 2 For this task, you will write an essay in response to a question that asks you to state and support your opinion on a topic. Your essay will be scored on the quality of your writing, including how well you organize and develop your ideas and how well you use language to express your ideas. Typically, an effective essay will have a minimum of 300 words. Read the question below and make any notes that will help you plan your response. Then begin typing your essay. Some people think that earning a high salary is the most important aspect of a job. Other people think that doing enjoyable work is more important, even if the job does not pay well. Which is more important to you: work that pays well or work that is enjoyable? Give specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

问答题Question: Using points and examples from the talk, explain the two methods animals use to ensure the moisture of their eggs before the hatch.

问答题Magnification Magnification is a tendency of some people to concentrate too much on the negative side of events. This can lead to unwise decision making that produces both failure and unhappiness. The degree of magnification can vary and it appears in different types. The first kind exaggerates the likelihood of unwanted events. "I'm sure to fail." The second exaggerates the importance of failures or mistakes that have occurred. "After this mistake, my life is over!" The third generalizes from a single negative event to an unbroken pattern of failure. "I always lose!" The same person, of course, may suffer from all three forms. While these may simply be annoying traits, all three behaviors can be related to depression, either as cause or symptom. Question: Using the information from the lecture, explain how the professor's story of his son demonstrates the concept of magnification as outlined in the reading passage. Now hear a talk on the same subject.

问答题The speaking discusses two possible solutions to the man's problem. Describe the problem and the two solutions. Then state which of the two solutions you prefer and explain why.
